Pretreatment EGFR T790M Mutation and BRCA1 mRNA Expression in Erlotinib-Treated Advanced Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer Patients with EGFR Mutations

Abstract: Purpose: Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations (deletion in exon 19 or L858R) show an impressive progression-free survival of 14 months when treated with erlotinib. However, the presence of EGFR mutations can only imperfectly predict outcome. We hypothesized that progression-free survival could be influenced both by the pretreatment EGFR T790M mutation and by components of DNA repair pathways.Experimental Design: We assessed the T790M m… Show more

“…an area greater than 2.2 mm 2 were macrodissected; the rest of the samples were microdissected as previously described (21). In both cases, cells were dissected directly into 30 mL of PCR buffer (Ecogen) plus proteinase K (40 mg/mL) and incubated overnight at 60 C. Proteinase was inactivated by incubation at 100 C for 10 minutes and the resulting cell extract used for mutational analyses.…”

“…Rosell et al revealed that 80 of 129 patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations had responded to erlotinib (ORR is 68.9) in their cohort study [16]. In EURTAC, which was performed in a first-line setting, ORR was reported as 64% [5].…”

“…Unfortunately, around 60% of these patients develop resistance to anti-EGFR treatment through a missense point mutation resulting in an amino-acid change from threonine to methionine in exon 20 of EGFR (EGFR T790M) (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12). This mutation is thought to not only appear during treatment, but in rare cases (<5%) can also be found in primary tumors not previously treated with TKIs (5,7,(13)(14)(15)(16). Detecting the T790M mutation is therefore of critical importance in guiding the treatment of NSCLC patients.…”
